"Standard viewing distance" is a shorthand expression for, "heck ... I want to make a really
big print out of a really tiny neg or digital file, so you need to back away from the damn
smudge in order to appreciate it". Normal viewing distance for a billboard, for example, is a quarter of a mile. One thing I like about LF is that people can get right smack up to
a big print and start discovering all kinds of hidden details.
